The 2, 11 & 12/12a are supposed to be EcoCity worked but due the previously mentioned fuelling issues, Darts still appear on them. The 1/5/5a are jointly Pulsar and OmniCity worked, X66 is OmniCity worked and the X1 is Pulsar worked. Everything else is Dart and/or Solo worked.

1798/8 are there still. 1797 is now officially in reserve but given both 1793/4 are still in use, I assume 1797 is as well.

It's Alive. This was displayed on the destination screen on one of Blyth's Hybrid's yesterday at Seaton Sluice-(it was off service)


RE: Arriva North East - kuyoyo - 04/04/2013 17:47

Centro 1924 spent the day on the X1 again today. Prestige 4046 spent the day on the 5, while 4040 replaced 4662 on the 29. 1457 was on the 7 this morning replacing 1923 before being replaced by 1906.

Not yet mentioned was the first appearance of an Ecocity 'off-route', when 4811 appeared on the last X66 on Tuesday night. This isn's so much 'off-route' as the last trip on the X66 actully works off the 12 (the previous trip also works off another service, although which is yet to be determined).

Talking of Ecocitys, only 6 were out in servce this morning dropping down to just 5 by early afternoon (4801/7 on the 2, 4803/6 on the 11 and 4810/1 on the 12, 4810 replaced by 1712).

4804 was replaced on the number 2 by 1656 at whitby way shops around 9 after only doing 2 trips looked like a falty cab door catch

1797 is currently stored at Belmont along with 4024 and 4032
